Barry tells Tennessee Republicans to lay off his wife

While appearing on Good Morning America, Barack Hussein Obama denounced the online ad that questions his wife's patriotism.

From ABC News:

The Republicans seem to have come to the same conclusion and a GOP Internet campaign in Tennessee has an ad featuring Michelle Obama's comments during the long Democratic campaign that "for the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country."

Michelle Obama was asked about the ad on "GMA," but her husband said, "Let me just interject on this."

"The GOP, should I be the nominee, I think can say whatever they want to say about me, my track record," Obama said. "I've been in public life for 20 years. I expect them to pore through everything that I've said, every utterance, every statement. And to paint it in the most undesirable light possible. That's what they do."

"But I do want to say this to the GOP. If they think that they're going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful. Because that I find unacceptable," he said.

What's he going to do, just whine? Clearly Barry wants it both ways. He wants to be able to use his wife out on the campaign trail, but he doesn't want anyone to question anything she says out on the campaign trail.

Personally, I would never question Michelle Obama's patriotism. How can you question something that doesn't exist?
